subtropical high has expanded to its largest extent and most pole ward position‚ exerting its influence on subtropical west coasts between 30o and 40o N and S latitude. Subsiding air from the high creates stable atmospheric conditions when coupled with cold ocean currents along these coasts (p. 111‚ ¶ 3). Terre Haute has a mid-latitude continental climate. Ritter explains that rainfall in is fairly evenly

4. Describe the difference in stellar evolution of stars the size of our sun with that of stars 4+ times larger than our sun. Include all of the steps and the causes of each step. A nebula‚ an immense cloud of hydrogen gas and dust‚ condenses into smaller regions of matter. On occasion‚ one of these regions collapses under the force of its own gravitational attraction‚ often triggered by an outside force‚ like a nearby supernova-an explosion of a star. After the collapse of a cloud‚ atoms begin

GG310 OCEANOGRAPHY Evaluate the geological evidence for so-called ‘Snowball Earth’ glacial episodes in the Precambrian and the hypothesis that these episodes were critical in the evolution of complex life. Introduction The hypothesis of Snowball Earth explores the possibility of the Earth’s surfaces having been frozen over during the Cryogenian period. The initial notion was thought to be from the glacial deposits which occurred around the world parallel to the same time frame. This led scientist

1.____________________________________________ Solar Energy System Design The largest solar electric generating plant in the world produces a maximum of 354 megawatts (MW) of electricity and is located at Kramer Junction‚ California. This solar energy generating facility‚ shown below‚ produces electricity for the Southern California Edison power grid supplying the greater Los Angeles area. The authors ’ goal is to provide the necessary information to design such systems. The solar collectors

Advanced Placement World History Summer Assignments Dutchtown High School Mr. W.K. Harris Welcome to Advanced Placement World History. Over the course of the school year we will explore 10‚000 years of human history‚ learn valuable skills‚ and take the AP Exam. This is an exciting class that will allow us to look at the big picture of history‚ trace cultures over time‚ and examine human interactions. For some of you‚ this is your first AP class. To be successful‚ you will need to stay focused

stratosphere‚ the tropopause‚ is marked by where this inversion begins‚ which in terms of atmospheric thermodynamics is the equilibrium level. The stratosphere is situated between about 10 km (6 mi) and 50 km (30 mi) altitude above the surface at moderate latitudes‚ while at the poles it starts at about 8 km (5 mi) altitude. Ozone and temperature Within this layer‚ temperature increases as altitude increases (see temperature inversion); the top of the stratosphere has a temperature of about 270 K (−3°C

Biomes and their Characteristics There are nine biomes in the world they are: Mountains- Very cold lack of oxygen when altitude is higher and there are alot of glaziers Tundra- It is very cold not much diversity and there are two types of tundra. Arctic and Alpine. Temperate Forest- There are wide leaves and non-seasonal vegetation and mixed forests. Marine Island- Islands are cold at night and usually has good surf. Marine ecosystems has no oxygen and full of life. Desert- Barely any plants
